📋 About This Mod
This mod fixes the invisible void outside of Alternate Start's opening cell, which is caused by a conflict with ELFX - Hardcore. The fix for this in the past has been to move Alternate Start below ELFX in the load order, but this eliminates the new lighting effects. This mod resolves the conflict by expanding ELFX Hardcore's cell boundaries, without sacrificing the new lighting added by the mod.
The mod is ESL-Flagged.
Installation:
Install manually or with mod manager.
